We are going to Magic Kingdom for only 1 day but will be in orlando for 3 days. I am wondering the best character meal that doesn't require a park ticket. I don't want to lose any park time to attend. We will be with 2 children that just turned 1.Thanks!”

Hello, Laney Belle!

Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Mom Panel with your question! There are a number of fabulous character dining options outside of the theme parks. Some of my favorites include…

Chef Mickey's at Disney's Contemporary Resort

Ohana's Best Friends Breakfast at Disney's Polynesian Resort

1900 Park Fare at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa

Take a look at those options as well as some others listed on the dining page I provided you. I think you will be pleased with them!
